Certainly a hangar would be ideal. But that would count as hoarding resources, and we are at a precarious arrangement with our current .... neighbours. I'm in the discussions with the Captain regarding the third nuclear reactor, because it only needs two. I can afford to donate one to the populace; the third is really just used to camouflage its signature frequency from being identified readily by my enemies. But I'm not in a position to worry about such things right now, and I highly doubt there's any use for its camouflaging capabilities here when no-one cares about the fact that it's a Gundam to begin with.

For now, checking for wear and tear and having regular maintenance performed on it is more than I can hope for. [ he looks at the gundam fondly. ] This might be strange, but I do consider it as an old friend. And I've someone waiting for both of us back home ... I need it to be ready for that day.
